Data on the Ecological Composition and Functional Distribution of Insect Communities in Onshore Wind Farms [PDF]
This study was conducted to identify changes in insect composition and function before and after the construction of onshore wind farms. We investigated insect fauna, composition, and functional groups in grassland and forest sites at the operational ...

Wind Speed Prediction for Offshore Sites Using a Clockwork Recurrent Network
Offshore sites show greater potential for wind energy utilization than most onshore sites. When planning an offshore wind power farm, the speed of offshore wind is used to estimate various operation parameters, such as the power output, extreme wind load,

Investigation of the Impact of Wakes and Stratification on the Performance of an Onshore Wind Farm
AbstractThis work investigates the effects of wakes and stratification on the performance of turbines operating in the Bessaker wind farm. The wind farm is located in a highly complex terrain. Most dominant wind directions recorded close to the site are westerly and south easterly and the average wind speed is recorded in the range of 10–15m/s implying

Onshore wind farms maintenance optimization using a stochastic model
A specific feature of wind power generation is the stochastic behavior of wind velocity which determines the energy produced, and also influences the turbine degradation process due to the stochastic load suffered by the wind turbine. Thus, wind turbines present a degradation process more complex than the equipment that work under stationary conditions.

Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

Optimized Placement of Onshore Wind Farms Considering Topography [PDF]
As the scale of onshore wind farms are increasing, the influence of wake behavior on power production becomes increasingly significant. Wind turbines sittings in onshore wind farms should take terrain into consideration including height change and slope curvature.
